it gives your average top quality Japanese sportsbike more power in the medium term.
I would bet that it would decrease reliability in the long term.
On a chinese copy of a japanese cruiser then I would RIGOROUSLY stick to the running in schedule. You have no idea to what tolerances that bike was made. If the manufacturer says to run it in, then I would run it in IMO.  ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F; Cheap project: CBR900RR FireBlade
Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another. |
